I agree it's the way it looks so 'clean' & refined that makes it look so cool..
Can i ask a stupid question? you may have already said... but what do you fill your 'cylinders' with exactly? And how do you go about making them?

PLEASE, ask!!! The "tubes" were actually my husband's idea. We used hardware cloth to make the cylinders and zip tied the seams (I love zip ties!!! I have them in EVERY size and color)....anyway once I got the size of the tubes the way I wanted them and in place, we zip tied them to the bottom grid for stability (Lord help me if I have to move them!) and then filled them will long fiber spag and woodland mosses...the woodland moss dries out faster than the spag does as to aviod mold and fungus issues...turned out much better than I had hoped!

Thanx for the questions!
